                Appeal 2007-1544                                                                             
                Application 09/984,227                                                                       

                holding claims 12 and 13 to be obvious over LeClair in view of Henderson                     
                and Tsai, we will reverse the Examiner’s rejection of claims 12 and 13 under                 
                35 U.S.C. § 103(a).                                                                          

                                         CONCLUSION OF LAW                                                   
                      We conclude that Appellant has shown that the Examiner erred in                        
                rejecting claims 1-30.  Claims 1-30 have not been shown to be unpatentable.                  

                                                DECISION                                                     
                      The Examiner’s rejection of claims 1-30 is reversed.
